In the meantime prepare the filling
Beat well cooled butter with icing sugar. Add vanilla and flour.
Take the pastry and make 10 balls of the size of your fist. Roll them out (size 7-8cm). Put filling in the middle, gather together, and roll again into a pancake
Turn the pancake and put on the baking tray. Prick with a fork to decorate and apply eggwash.
Bake for 20 mins. Since the decoration on the top may disappear while your Kyata is being baked, 5 mins after putting in the oven remove it, apply eggwash and prick with a fork again. Put it back into the oven.
Cool before eating.
